[Lucky Luciano]

[kwassa]

[AspenRose]

[FrenchieCat]

8. I am so bad. I just read about her work and she's a good person. Lotsa hair but a good person!

Mrs Chantal Biya, the First Lady of Cameroon and President of the Foundation “African Synergies against AIDS and Suffering”, was designated as UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador for Education and Social Inclusion on 14
November 2008, thus becoming the first female African Goodwill Ambassador of the Organization.

The title was bestowed in recognition
of Mrs Biya’s commitment to fighting social exclusion, notably through HIV/AIDS education and prevention, and her promotion of the Organization’s ideals. UNESCO wishes to build on Madame Biya’s efforts to address the interrelated issues of gender inequality and the empowerment of women and girls, vulnerable people and minorities in the context of the struggle against poverty.

Cameroon’s First Lady is known for her active social engagement, as well as her ability to mobilize the support of many African countries to her cause, as well as eminent scientists.
Mrs Biya is also renowned for her activities in favour of women, children and other vulnerable groups, notably through her Foundation “African Synergies against AIDS and Suffering”
and the “Centre international de Référence Chantal Biya” (the Chantal Biya International Reference Centre).

The Centre is closely linked to UNESCO’s “Families First Africa” project, which supports activities that address HIV/AIDS in Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire and Burkina Faso.

Wonder if she asked Dolly Parton

where she got her hair?

11. I ADORE her! I bet she'd be fun to have as a friend.

[gateley]

14. Well, since the 80's anyway - or Wynona Judd. nt

[jillan]

9. I bet it took Michelle all she had not to touch that hair.

[KingFlorez]

10. for some reason, The First Lady of Cameroon reminds me of Jackee as Sandra Clark on 227

It's the hair, it has the big, 80s look.

12. I want the hair spray concession...friends wife use to gas us out of the house with VO5 .

[vaberella]

13. That is one crazy wig. I love the chicken and her green ring. n/t

[tblue37]

15. That lady's hair is obviously a wig.

I love Michelle's dress. Sometimes her style is so sharp and attractive, but at other times she misses the mark by miles. Her sense of fashion, it seems to me, swings wildly from fabulous to "WTF?" That dress is definitely fabulous, though.

16. Way, way down on the list of things I wish our First Lady would change

(and goodness knows, I have a lot more I like about her than her husband these days) is those high waisted dresses. They make her look dowdy, and she isn't dowdy at all.

[handmade34]

18. awesome!

I love our First Lady

[cilla4progress]

19. I LOVE that Michelle "rewears"

dresses. It adds to her humanity. And, it's hard to believe - she has met her match (or more?) in height in the 1st lady of Cameroon! Could largely be the hair, however...

[proteus_lives]

20. The First Lady of the Cameroon kinda looks like Peggy Bundy.

[KakistocracyHater]

21. someone's basil has bolted

:kick:

[old mark]

22. WOW! That ring on FL Cameroon!!! What a fucking ROCK!!!! nt

24. I attended a dinner tonight where several of my fellow attendees asserted that Michelle

is living extravagantly on the tax payer dime. Now, mind you: these are intelligent, educated "liberals," but hate all things Obama. They went on and on about the lavish lifestyle, trips to Paris. They didn't even know why the First Lady was in Paris, but they bought the M$M meme hook, line and sinker. I had given up. I'm too tired to continue to defending Michelle. I understand the anger at Barack, but Michelle. She's really the one with the balls.

Really... they didn't know the real reason why Obama was in Paris. And they didn't know that she had paid with *her* own money.

What's more, these complaints were never leveled at Laura Bush or Hillary Clinton. Not even Nancy Reagan. Michelle Obama? Oh, no! The double standards never cease to amaze me...
